Simply His Chapter 174: "Mind Link"
*Zareen*I feel weak.But the itch is gone.I want to smile and dance and scream and laugh. But I feel too weak."You will regain strength slowly, you went through a high-stressing situation, but you survived." I hear his soft whisper in my ear.That is true, I am in his arms, and he is taking me to my room. I want to say thank you, I know I should, but I am too weak. Am I?Why is it so hard for me to let others help me? Why is it so hard for me to let them be closer to me? Why is it that I can't say thank you? I hold myself tighter to him, this stranger who has helped me survive the hardest thing in my life."Is she awake? Can she hear me?" I hear my father say. Oh no, he must be so worried for me, I should really say something now."She is going to be ok now, Aeolus. But at the moment she is slowly recovering her energy and strength. She will be awake and be talking to us all in a few hours."My heart pounds faster, I really have to thank this stranger for knowing exactly wh

*Zareen*I hear a knock on the door and I pull the cover back onto myself. "Come in."And I see him walk in, closing the door and smiling softly. I relax a little as he walks closer; he pulls up a chair and sits near me. "How are you feeling?"I sigh and lean my back against the pillows again. "I wish people would stop asking me that. Meadow was here earlier, and so was my father. They worry too much."He shakes his head and chuckles. "You were on the edge of killing yourself, and by a miracle, unforeseen by the necromancers, you survived barely with the help of magic. And only thanks to the intervention of other races and a blood transfusion, you are now breathing and healing."I lower my head at his words, he is right and I know I need to thank them. "I just need time…""And space, I get it… and I will tell this to them… but don't push them away just because they worry. Your father most of all. Meadow was looking after you as it is part of her mother instinct. And because her h

*Meadow*I am nervous and can't stand still; I pace here and there, everywhere. We have only been waiting for a few minutes, but I need to know what is happening. I want to know what is this creature aware of that involves our children. They are restless; they usually move a lot but now they are still. Waiting.A mental brush of warmth reaches me, and seconds after Caleb's arms wrap around me. 'Angels are creatures that never intervene with this world. They are constant watchers…'I nod and relax in his arms. 'And fallen Angels?' I ask.'They want more… they don't want to stay just watching… they don't like to be just observers and they change… it is not necessarily for evil, but some wanted to intervene by doing good too. They just didn't want to remain as observants.'' He says as he turns me around and kisses my lips softly.'So he might not be a bad creature, right?' I smile at him, hopeful.'If he is, he won't be able to hurt you or anyone. He needs more than that. We all are

*Raziel*These half humans, half animals are interesting creatures; they seem to possess all the human traits of emotions with the feral animal traits of loyalty. I will have to make sure to study their behavior more. The wind elemental creatures, however, they are soldiers following an emotional wind-world of a leader. The only creature that I can't read is the vampyr.I should be careful with what I say in front of the others, not all of them are to be trusted. The Oracles have warned me about people close to them betraying, and I should be careful with all the other information they have provided me… before I killed them. * ~~~~~~~ **** ~~~~~~~ * *Caleb*Now that we are at a safe distance, and that is only me and Meadow with Raziel; I watch carefully what he is going to do next. He barely makes a move that hasn't been previously thought of; he never makes even an extra blink unless it is necessary. He does his best to look normal but at the same time, he does his best to n

*Meadow*After our talk, I feel relaxed and safe. I am not letting my guards down completely, but in some ways, having an Angel, fallen or not, at my side is a big deal. I try to ponder what his presence really means to me, apart from discovering yet another set of fantasy creatures that are actually real. When he is around me, I don't feel any alterations to myself. No behavior that would change is something I embrace. Cyrus' control of emotions and connections, powers or abilities, is a dangerous weapon which we have luckily at our side as well.Caleb is now preparing something for us to go out and explore the last area where the wind creatures saw the necromancers and I am waiting for him patiently. Demark is holding Pearl and I smile as I watch them both. He is very cute when he is with her, a new side of him."Meadow, why don't you try resting here with Pearl? It can be so dangerous over there." He says as both he and Pearl look at me.I chuckle and smile at them. "It has cros

*Meadow*Returning to our current command center was easy, but something was different. There was tension, I could sense that before we arrived. Raziel had a very serious face, a change from his usual emotionless mask. Caleb starts to look around and as he does this, I am able to see things as he sees them. There is an unusual quietness around the land of the wind creatures, and Aeolus is impatient.I am about to walk through the tall trees that serve as arches and enter when Raziel pulls my hand at the same time Caleb pulls me from the other. "Wait…" He says.Zareen's eyes widen as she seems to feel something nearby. Is she able to sense things too?I look at Raziel first, then at Caleb, and he pulls me into his arms as the others reach us. Raziel examines the double arch and he steps back. "These gates have been cursed. They were here."I hold my breath and look around panicked. This chase has turned into hunt; them hunting us.* ~~~~~~~ **** ~~~~~~~ * *Viorra*I can't belie

*At some city, far from the forests*He watches her from a distance; she finishes cleaning the last table and then heads to the back of the bar and through the staff's door so she can finally change her sweaty clothes.Today was no different than any other for Eloise; she finished her part time job at the library as a bookkeeper and then, after lunch, she went to the other part time job she had at the local bar. It was hard to get used to it at first, but she was now fine with it. At the beginning, this was only temporarily, to get enough money to go to college. But now, college seemed far away, and she had made friends.Tonight she was doing a favor for one of those new friends, staying over extra hours while said friend was taking her son to the hospital again. Catty had been having a bad month with her son being sick and her bills piling up. Eloise knew this and didn't hesitate to say yes to give her a hand.This was not the first time he was watching over her. When he found her

*Somewhere in the forest*The little windy creature detected movement not too far from his location, so he rushed in his form to get closer to the origin of it. A tall creature spread his wings as it flowed some dark fire energy all around him. The necromancers were scattered around like zombies; nothing capturing their attention and moving randomly.A whimper made him focus on a body at the feet of the winged creature; a female crawling slowly, trying to get away. "Meerr…" the voice broke in more tears. "Meerrccyyy… pleeeasee…" whimpered.But the creature did not feel anything as it lifted the female with his will; the fire-like energy then surrounded her, and with a long moan of pain, she was drained of all her essence and ceased to breathe.He knew who that was, and he was scared of what he witnessed. He then turned around to return but froze; one of the necromancers was standing a foot away from him, looking at him as if it could see through him. He thought this was the end. Ye

Simply His Chapter 235: Epilogue
*Meadow*The sun casts a warm golden glow, as if trying to heal the scarred landscape left by the war. Fields, once lush and green, lie ravaged, but sprouts of new life fight their way through the wreckage. The earth seems to be slowly stitching itself back together, just as we are.I sit anxiously as I wait for Sol to walk down the flowered aisle. She chose this place as the setting for her wedding, and when I asked her why, she said she wanted to honor those people who fell during our battle."Look at that," Xavier says, pointing to a small group of deer grazing in the distance. "Life always finds a way.""Indeed," I reply, my voice catching in my throat. The sight is both beautiful and heartbreaking. It's hard not to think of those who never got to see this moment of renewal.Right after the battle, we spent our days rebuilding the world around us, not only the physical structures, but also the hearts and minds of those left behind. It's a slow and arduous process, but with each bri
Simply His Chapter 234: A Brighter Tomorrow
*Solveigh*My consciousness returns slowly, as if emerging from the depths of a murky abyss. The voices around me are hushed and indistinct, like echoes in a fog. I strain to understand them, but they remain elusive.‘Sol,’ Seth's voice resonates within my mind, warm and reassuring. ‘You're going to be okay. You need more rest before your body can fully recover.’I want to respond, to tell him how tired I am, but my limbs are heavy and unresponsive. My eyelids feel weighed down, as if encased in stone. It's frustrating, this inability to move or communicate.‘Mom... Dad…’ I try to call for them in my thoughts, hoping Seth will relay my message.Footsteps approach, and I sense their familiar presence even before I hear dad's deep, calming voice. "Seth, how is she?""Her body is still too weak to talk or open her eyes or move yet," Seth explains gently. "But she can hear us."My heart swells with gratitude. They came, just as I knew they would. I wish I could see their faces or embrace t
Simply His Chapter 233: Obliterated
*Caliope*I watch Amral crumple to the ground, his eyes rolling back as he loses consciousness. Panic surges through me like a tidal wave, drowning out all other emotions. The dark creatures circle him, preparing to tear him apart, and something inside me snaps."Amral!" I scream, my voice cracking under the weight of my fear and desperation. He can't die; not now, not like this. My love for him, my need to protect him, fuels my anger and pain. I have more to fight for than ever before."Get away from him!" I roar, focusing all my dark powers into a singular force. Shadows stretch out from my fingertips, wrapping around the monstrous beings that threaten his life. I tug at the darkness, sending the creatures flying away from his motionless body."Please, you can't leave me," I whisper, tears streaming down my face. Desperation echoes through my voice, and I feel it deep within my soul. "You can't die."The creatures recover quickly, turning their attention towards me. But I'm not afrai
Simply His Chapter 232: Shadowed Chaos
*Solveigh’s*I step through the black hole portal, and my breath catches in my throat. The darkness enveloping me is thick, almost tangible, and I feel like I'm choking on it. Panic rises within me as I sense the presence of the creatures, born from the shadows and chaos that surround us."Sol," Seth's voice rings out, startling me. He's right beside me, his strong hand gripping mine. He steadies myself emotionally. My panic begins to subside a little, replaced by a sense of calm that only Seth can provide. "We'll get through this," he whispers, his eyes filled with determination."Where are they? Amrafel, Caliope," I call out, searching for our companions. Within seconds, they materialize before us, their powerful auras cutting through the darkness. Amrafel's eyes are like twin flames, lighting up his face, while Caliope's gaze is as sharp as obsidian."Ready to fight these dark creatures?" Amrafel asks, his voice low and steady. Caliope nods, her face set in grim resolve. I feel conf
Simply His Chapter 231: Havoc
*Solveigh*I feel like I am in a new state of existence, and every inch of my body is running with electricity; something else has replaced my blood, and the adrenaline is addictive. Seth’s hand presses on my back and I know the reason why I haven't fainted is that of him.A large creature falls close to me and I jump, but quickly regain my focus, not wanting to be distracted, but the smell that comes from its corpse is making me nauseous. I shiver slightly but lock my eyes on my brother Ian, and then I feel ready to try more.It is not the first time; I have done this before, transferring my abilities, affecting them in a way that helped them, enhancing them. I know I can do this, and so, I feel myself reach to Xavier and he shudders slightly, then his voice booms, and it starts to affect the lesser creatures that screech in what now has become a battlefield.I can’t erase the smile on my face; we are making things happen, they are stepping away, so many of them are on the floor alrea
Simply His Chapter 230: Mayhem
*Xavier*‘They are here,’ are Ian’s words. Words that reach me just as I finish kissing my mates.I rush outside and I see Ian in the middle of the large field, he is looking up to the sky and my eyes follow his. A black pool of nothingness is starting to grow, and I see the elementals panicking as they whisper things in different languages and I know my brother feels them more than me.This angers me; it is not like we weren’t expecting them. Sure, we didn’t know specifically when they were going to attack again, but we had been preparing for them.I focus on the fire elementals and I let my command voice do its job. “Gather up! Get ready! Distraction is needed very fast! Chop chop!”Uncle Aen is quickly joining them, keeping his calm as he looks at me and nods, he knows the time has come. I turn to look at my mates and I feel caught up in the same panic; my mates need to be safe.“Don’t you stand there, you need to get over there and help take them down,” Dana pulls me out from the s
Simply His Chapter 229: Hope
*Meadow*I rush into the cabin, and I find a small gathering in the living room. I don’t understand why everyone is here and not inside helping my Sol. Caleb quickly reaches me and we both walk straight towards her bedroom door.Until Xavier stops us.“Son?” I ask, confused and angry at the same time. “What is happening?”“Mother, wait… Sol is actually ok, she was taken to Caliope’s father to help.”His words feel almost like a foreign language to me. “I can’t feel her mind, what do you mean with all this?”I look at Caly and she actually looks back at me with a face filled with confusion and fear. It is Lucifer who speaks for her. “I have been many eons in my own prison, so I know what he is doing. He has felt a connection to Sol, so he has used her to send a message to us. He can’t hold it for long, so she should be back very soon.”Her words make some sense, and I understand why Caly is a bit shaken by this. I look at her and nod, trying to contain myself as well, showing her that
Simply His Chapter 228: Taken
*Solveigh*I walk through a path of tall and untamed grass. Wild dandelions fly as I walk by them, and the sun shines at its peak, yet its heat is soothing, not overwhelming. The wind blows on my face, and there is pure peace embracing me.Am I dreaming?No, this is not a dream, it is so real. I feel the grass at the tip of my fingers and I sense the texture of them. I see a cabin, a very old one, and a scarecrow that is standing in the middle of the empty land. I frown as I notice that there are no crows nor any animals around us.Everything seems so eery and quiet. Too quiet.As the seconds pass and I keep walking, I get worried, something is about to happen or is happening. I am not sure what it is, even though I keep looking all around me, but something doesn’t fit. Is like I am inside a painting, a living painting.It is when I open my mouth to talk, that I realize that I have no voice as well, and now, I know this must be a nightmare.‘Seth, can you feel me?’ I try to reach for
Simply His Chapter 227: Ludicrous
*Caleb*I watch as Aen handles the elementals calmly. It is not an easy task, yet his experience in battle allows to use his command voice with every one of them. It is something out of an epic story, and yet we find ourselves helpless while we wait.Ebony and Ivory are having a small talk with Sol, the angels like her a lot, which ensures her protection. Is not like she would need so much of it, she is her own worst enemy. But to know they are fond of my daughter just makes me happy.“Where are your thoughts?” Amra asks me as I keep staring at my daughter and the angels.“My thoughts are a bit drifting, I don’t like the idea of coming to a war unprepared,” I admit to him. I know he is also worried, although he shows himself much more calm and collected.“I understand that, and it does bring me worries. I like to be in control of the situation, but nothing that is happening is under our control… in fact, I think the only thing under our control is the lack of actions.”I sigh and shak
